intent: Match a short GPS trace to roads via query string
effect: read
questions:
- How can I snap a handful of GPS waypoints to the road network with a simple GET?
- Is a GET with the waypoints in the query string enough to match a short GPS trace?
instructions:
- text: Match waypoints {waypointN} to the most probable {mode} route using a GET request.
slots:
waypointN: query.waypointN
mode: query.mode
- text: Snap the query-string trace {waypointN} to roads for a {mode}, avoiding areas {avoidAreas}.
slots:
waypointN: query.waypointN
mode: query.mode
avoidAreas: query.avoidAreas

intent: Match an uploaded GPS trace to the driven path
effect: read
questions:
- How do I match a large GPS trace file to the path a truck actually drove?

- Which vehicle types does GPS trace matching support?
instructions:
- text: Match the GPS trace in the request body to the driven {mode} route.
slots:
mode: query.mode
- text: Post this trace for {mode} route matching and return path coordinates {pathCoordinates}.
slots:
mode: query.mode
pathCoordinates: query.pathCoordinates

intent: Upload a custom overlay map for route matching
effect: write
questions:
- Can I block or add road links privately so route matching uses my changes?
- Are overlay map edits visible to other customers?
instructions:
- text: Upload overlay map changes {overlay_spec} for route matching.
slots:
overlay_spec: query.overlay_spec
- text: Submit overlay {overlay_spec} as map {mapName} using the deprecated overlay upload.
slots:
overlay_spec: query.overlay_spec
mapName: query.mapName
